I've been working in production for years and have rented from MANY rental houses; ranging from Hollywood, Culver City, Downtown, Glendale, Burbank, etc. Although my experiences were generally decent, I've never had my mind blown until I was introduced to Deck of Aces. Boota (the owner) is a man of honor and understanding. He realizes that renting film equipment is expensive and is very supportive of all filmmakers. His pricing is incredible, in fact it almost seems TOO GOOD to be true. I pay about half of what I do compared to other rental houses when I get his RED Epic & Movi packages. He's got an incredible amount of equipment always keeps his gear clean and updated. Now aside from the equipment is his quality service. My crew & I were shooting out in the desert (2 hours away from his shop in Burbank) when we noticed that we were missing a few pieces from our package. Boota was kind enough to drive all the way out to deliver the cord to us -- AT NO CHARGE. Deck of Aces makes you feel like family. The whole team is very professional and flexible with your needs. Great quality, great service, and great respect. I HIGHLY recommend you rent from them! read more

Deck of Aces Camera Rentals - Our setup courtesy of Deck of Aces. RED Epic kit w/matte box & Zeiss lenses at a GREAT price. Everything felt brand new & worked great. - Photography Stores & Services Near Me - Burbank, California

Worst camera shop ever. Doesn't go through with anything. Ordered something and got the opposite. Owner is just as bad as his business. He will be sent back from his work visa in Canada in a quickness. Horrible work ethic and even a worse person. GO ANYWHERE BUT HERE!!! read more

Super awesome place! Boota the owner is a great guy and helped us out on our feature with a last minute item. They're open on weekends and they just know what at it is when it comes to service. They have all your usual high end gear from RED Weapon to Alexa, of course. Highly recommended! read more

Really good guys with great gear. They're always helpful no matter what our budget is. We've rented from them several times and only had one glitch (a camera malfunction, not their fault). But Boota, the owner, personally delivered a new camera to our set and got us hooked up quickly. Really good and honest guys. Will definitely continue to rent from them. read more

These guys are actual human beings who care about you and your project. Their prices are also unheard of. I've seriously been recommending anyone and everyone I know to Deck of Aces. And if you treat them and their equipment with a decent level of respect, they just might cut you an even better deal. Thank you Deck of Aces for giving me the opportunity to affordably shoot professional-looking projects. It's people like you who help take our work to the next level (except there's not many people like you). I'll definitely be back. read more

Boota and the guys at Deck of Aces are absolutely top notch. I'm itching to get out of most rental houses, dreary spots they are, but DOA is an entirely different place. Top quality gear, receptive to the needs and desires of his shooters, and constantly expanding his fleet of cameras and lenses. Prices are killer too. Rent there now! read more

Amazing! I don't think i've gotten this level and quality of service from any company ever. Boota is truly a caring, understanding, honest individual who is always willing to serve his customer as best he can. As a CSUF student and aspiring DP this was my first legit experience working with a camera house. Boota was very helpful to me throughout the entire process. He even made himself available in the middle of the night after a late night shoot to fix a malfunction with my monitor. Aaron is also a great Movi operator and knows the equipment very well! I'm so glad i discovered this place so early and I look forward to renting from DOA again! Boota is the man! read more

I subrented Boota my red monstro over 3 weeks ago for a weekend and have yet to be paid. He contacted me through share grid and asked if we could do the rental outside of there to save money. He told me he'd pay me that day but since then it's been radio silence. He doesn't return calls or texts. I got one text from him saying he was waiting on some checks and that was 2 weeks ago. read more

I am so disappointed in this shop. Rude, dishonest, lie to you so you purchase and then not answer your calls. Equipment is a failure and such a high cost. Don't shop there. read more

Boota Pahal has made the experience of renting high-end gear pretty amazing. We needed some gear last minute after another company fell through and we had everything we needed, two days later - and Boota didn't charge us extra knowing that we needed him at the 11th hour. His prices are the best and he has a team of people that are aces. The only reason you haven't rented from them yet is because you're just hearing about them NOW! read more

best camera rental place in the biz. The owner went above and beyond to make everything correct with my stuff. I will ONLY GO TO DECK OF ACES!!!! best place around, hands down. better service for a cheaper price. BOOTA IS THE TRUTH!!! read more

They are pretty new but I love renting from Deck of Aces! Boota is the shit!! Rent from them and you will want to rent from them all the time! read more

Boota helped us out with a last minute deal. He was open and accommodating on the weekend which is abnormal in the rental business. Great guy, great business, highly recommend for your production needs. read more

Hi this is Denise the PA for the Model 05 Production Co.This is our first experience with Deck of Aces. Service, service, service. Pro equipment, fast service, amazing people run this location. The RED we rented was in perfect condition! Made the shoot, the best! Boota even came out to the location! For amazing equipment rental, great service, amazing prices. Give them a call. If your in College, give them a call. Short and sweet of it, the best! read more

I've been struggling trying to find the right company for my rentals until I stumbled over this gem. Deck of Aces and the guys over there really provide excellent customer. I had rented several cameras and a drone for a large project and our guy couldn't not get the drone to work. One of the guys from Deck of Aces came out helped us out with the issue in the middle of long beach during the afternoon. We appreciate the awesome service and definitely trust them for all our projects moving forward keep it up guys of Deck of Aces! read more

Boota is my go-to man when I need a camera! He runs his business with absolutely top-notch customer service and he truly cares about his clients. D of A always has what I need (in great condition) and is willing to go the extra mile. They have saved me when I needed something last minute--Boota even personally delivered a camera when I was extremely low on time and hands. What would I do without him?!?! I don't rent from anywhere else and you shouldn't either! read more

We contacted them for a last minute rental and they were amazingly nice and helpful. I absolutely recommend them!

Deck of Aces has all the dope Red packages but unheard of prices. I did some comparison research and found no competitors even close to as affordable as Deck of Aces. The owner even let me text him questions I had about the camera over the weekend. Awesome customer service! read more

Boota doesn't mess around when it comes to getting the best camera gear at the best price for your production. Ranging from Movi gimbal systems to Carbon Fiber RED Dragons. His inventory keeps getting bigger and his location and prep bays are like no other camera rental houses. Deck of Aces should definitely be a one-stop-shop for camera rentals. read more

Been working in industry since 09 and I can say this is easily one of the best rental house in town. Amazing price, clean shop and awesome staff. I'd highly recommend this place. read more

Deck of Aces has the best camera rentals out there. It is my go to rental house. The staff know the film industry and on top of that they look good while serving it. They are always ready to go out of their way to meet the customers needs. DOA all day. read more

The guys at DOA have always been there to provide what I need for my shoots. They went out of their way last minute to get me a low light filter for the Dragon one time. Boota will bust his ass to get you what you need. read more

Best prices and the owner Boota is above and beyond with his services. Top of the line gear and extremely knowledgable. Excellent Rental House! read more

I recently came here for a prep and left a google review about it because it was such a bad experience. My what should've been a 2 hour prep, at most, turned into an all day prep because the owner, who was the only one working there, spent most of the day outside smoking weed and nothing was in the shop that I asked for. I wasted a whole day over nothing being ready and no one being able to go pick anything up. At one point I had to wait well over an hour for the owner's friend to come to the shop so he could drive to Abel to pick up a filter. Yea, a filter and it was a filter that was on the order to begin with! That's not the best part though, shortly before someone got there to go pick up the filter the owner asked me if I wanted to go pick it up myself! He said "yea, you know, Abel's like right down the street, wouldn't take you long". I couldn't believe that. I mean, really?! I told him I had work to do because I was trying to get outta there and then he went outside to smoke weed again and asked me if I wanted to go smoke. It was unreal. A few hours after leaving the google review I get a call from my DP that I prepped that job for, telling me the owner of Deck of Aces just called and him and cursed him out because of my review. Apparently the owner told my DP that I "didn't know what I was talking about" and that I "asked a bunch of stupid of questions that I should've known the answers to". This blew my mind coming from someone who told me my wide lenses looked off when I checked them at prep because it's hard to tell with wides. NONE of the lenses were on but I didn't make an issue out of it because it was a music video thatI was eye-focusing on and because all of the lenses were subbed so I didn't wanna wait another hour or two while someone took them back to another house to get fixed. Absolutely ridiculous. read more

They are the best. We had a problem with the Dragon mid production and we would have been completely f*ed if Boota didn't provide us with a replacement in a matter of hours. We love you man! read more

Deck of Aces is always the first place I turn for camera rentals. They take great care of their equipment, their rates are super reasonable, they are flexible with the factors involved in a shoot and they are such nice people to work with! Since we have a good relationship, there have been times when Boota was gracious enough to upgrade us to even better cameras, or throw in awesome extras like high quality monitors etc. if they happened to be available. There really isn't anything you could want more in a rental company, and I can't recommended Deck of Aces enough! read more

I don't usually write reviews but these guys deserve one! Not only do they have the best deal in town, they go above and beyond to make you happy. The owner Boota has gone as far as to do a Sunday night delivery to insure we got the right package for our shoot. Can't say any other house I know would do that. read more
